Is he better than White? Don't know but either way if he's not assured a starting place we'll have no choice but to sell him on.

Same situation with Pepe. I don't think anybody cares about that project anymore mind. See if we can get £30m for him and gamble on someone else.
1. He's had 1 bad game, Brentford 1st game of the season
2. He played okay against Chelsea, in his less favoured position of RB to accommodate Holding at CB
3. He's 24
4. Consider what United paid for Maguire
5. There's always an English player loading on cost
